The Obligatory Daylight Saving Time News Story

#NEWSLINE 
       Written By Skyler 
       Croglog
     On March 9th , America (with the exception of most of Arizona and Hawaii)  will be setting it's clocks one hour ahead again. Good Ole fashion Standard time gets pushed off at 2AM , and on the 9th 2AM won't exist.  The fun spring forward so you think you are getting an extra hour of sunlight because the sun will be going down   at 7 PM instead of  6 PM because 7 PM was 6 PM .  You will also experience symptoms of the clock change including confusion :  e.g. ,  thinking that it's  2:15 when it's 3:15 , not feeling sleepy at the time you normally feeling sleepy, you wake up see it's dark outside and go back the bed then only to find out it's not 5:30 AM but 6:30 AM and now are running late. 
        
    Meanwhile  the annual story about Daylight saving time being bag for your health is always something to look at ,   for instance, Daylight Saving time may help your wreck your  Green Ford Focus.  (read that link you will see what I mean )  
       The lucky ones are in Arizona , who saw no need for extending daylight because anything to make it less than 112 degrees is a help. I wouldn't mind on a hot day that sun would go down at like 12PM  until fall.  The lucky ones in Hawaii who don't need it because it's Hawaii.  

So anyway there's not much else to say  so if you live in the areas affected by daylight saving time , don't forget to remember that it happened , and set your clocks a head.
